Experiment 045 - Doublewool Hooded Vest

Additional Information

Story

An experimental insulated vest using two beautiful wool fabrics, and warm, breathable insulation. Features a removable hood, Block Tapey chest pocket and angle rear pocket.

Fabric

Years ago we made a triple wool vest, wool face, wool liners and wool insulation. Great vest but we never got off the ground with using that wool insulation in clothing, the highly breathable Primaloft Infinity and Polartec Alpha stuff is way better for our needs. Along the way we half threw the baby out with the bath water, no wool insulation means no triple wool. This year we finally came to our senses and realized doublewool is just as good, or better really. On the outside a wool-nylon black and navy oxford, with a touch of tencel for softness and elastane for stretch. The lining is our S120 Twill, a soft and warm Super 120s merino with a subtle give. In-between the two 120gsm of Primaloft Infinity, a highly breathable, non-migrating insulation that enables a dialed in warmth without overheating. Double wool plus some more.
